NBC's three Super Bowl games since getting rights back in 2006-07 have been decided by four points each. Over that span, Super Bowl broadcasts on Fox have been decided by an average of 12.5 points, and Super Bowl broadcasts on CBS have been decided by an average of 9.75 points.

Bell Media's Super Bowl ratings fell 39 per cent this year, but that's less than many expected following the CRTC's simsub decision to let Canadians watch U.S. ads. However, many Canadians did turn to Fox, and some Canadian businesses even bought local ads on Fox stations.
